DON'T TRUST THE B---- IN APARTMENT 23
April 11, 2012  | By David Bianculli

ABC, 9:30 p.m. ET

 
SERIES PREMIERE: This new sitcom comes on a little strong, just like its central, titular character: a fierce, seemingly remorseless force of nature named Chloe, who becomes the loose-cannon dominant member of an Odd Couple duo of mismatched roommates. (Dreama Walker plays June, her bubbly, resilient counterpart.) But it has two secret weapons that make it worth watching, to see if and how it develops in future weeks. One is Krysten Ritter, recently seen as Jesse’s ill-fated girlfriend on Breaking Bad, who plays Chloe with all the boldness the role requires. The other is James Van Der Beek, long ago of Dawson's Creek, who plays a tongue-in-cheek caricature of himself with all the flippancy that role requires.
